Watch: The First Of It’s Kind ALS Social Experiment

The iconic Love Island Malta villa is opening its doors once again… but this time, it’s not for romance.

In a powerful awareness campaign, Lovin Malta is teaming up with Media Exclusive to support ALS Malta+. Six familiar Maltese faces will spend 24 hours inside a villa as part of a social experiment designed to shine a light on the daily realities of living with ALS.

There’s one important twist: throughout the experience, some participants will suddenly be faced with symptoms that mimic the devastating effects of ALS, including losing the ability to speak, use their arms or move independently.

Watch the video below to see what’s in store for this powerful social experiment:
